Asual | Blog - SWFAddress 2.3

Left by odd at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

I'm using the AS2 version and the decodeURI method seems to be buggy, it doesn't handle unicode correctly, try for example:

trace(SWFAddress.decodeURI(SWFAddress.encodeURI((('/test äöü €/')))));

it will trace null.

Is there any reason for not using the Flash Players native escape/unescape functions?

Hi there, Rostislav.
I've found a bug (or whatever u call it) when using swfaddress 2.3 under Opera 9.64.

The bug is critical i think, as it crushes all URLLoaders in the application after address change.

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ktyzN5GgCA (watch is HD to recognize the text)
I've already sent u the source code of that example.

Left by Bryan at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

im having an issue. im using the AS2 implementation... 2 things are strange...

1. the URLs generated are:

http://site/index.html#/subsection/

instead of...

http://site/index.html/#/subsection/

and... it works in firefox 3 but not IE 7. It seems to move the pages around but its not appending the page to the url. everything says...

http://site/index.html/

thanks so much for your help.

Some ideas? Otherwise i'll take back the old 2.2 - there was no error.

Left by sf at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

I have the same problem. In IE8 the browser history is not populated.

I have tried with <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" /> and with <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />, but it's still not working.

If I activate the comptability mode directly in IE8 it works. But this is not a solution for me. It seems that I have tried everything.

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi all,
I have a quick request, hopefully someone can save me hours/days/weeks/my soul :)

I'm building websites in FP9 AS2 — could someone please point me towards the correct versions of the AS, JS and HTML files for this type of output. Nothing I've tried from within the 2.3 package seems to work in FP9 AS2.

Many thanks in advance

We found some issues with v2.3 and IE7 not playing nice by not loading in some flash pieces. For some reason though, if you wrap a setTimeout() function around your embed method it makes your flash magically appear.

example:
setTimeout(function() {
//do your embedding in this anonymous function if you want
}, 0)

this has saved us numerous times already.
is this a known bug?

Left by Rostislav at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Check the SVN copy because I have applied a patch to this function recently. There is no native decodeURI is AS2.

It won't work if you're on a Mac because of an issue with FP9+. Get the latest AS and JS files from the link above and it should be fine.

Hi, first off great component very excited to use it, however I'm running into a pretty serious problem. I'm using swfobject 2, here is my embed code:

swfobject.embedSWF("${swf}.swf", "wrapper", "100%", "100%", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf", {data:encodeURI(innerXHTML(document.getElementById("wrapper")))}, {});

the data object when it shows up in flash is null. When I comment out the swfaddress include, everything works fine. Is this a known issue? Is there something I can do to make this work?

Thanks for any info.

I can also confirm that flashvars are nulled when using SWFAddress 2.3 with SWFObject 2.1 in IE6 and IE7. Also, the Back button wont trigger the SWFAddressEvent.CHANGE if the swfaddress.js include is placed above the swfobject.js include.

Left by Ben at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

I am playing with the SEO example and MAMP. I tested the seo example in Safari with plugins disabled at

http://localhost/seo/

to simulate the experience of an iPhone or Search robot. When I click on a link to About I get this error:

"The requested URL /swfaddress/samples/seo/index.php was not found on this server."

However when I put the seo example in the folder structure:

http://localhost/swfaddress/samples/seo/

Everything works just fine. So my question is, when using
http://localhost/seo/ where is swfaddress/samples/ coming from? What code is setting that?

Thanks for your great work on this! The AS2 src files are missing the package - easy to overlook when using AS3 -

Left by Nami at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Hi,

I have a persistant problem with SwfAddress.

It appears that when my flex application is loaded directly to my navigator, change event is transmited to my application. But if it's embedded in an html page, event is only transmitted on page loading, and that's all.

I can change URL, nothing appear..

Could you help me ? I spent already 2 days on the problem and didn't find any solution :(

Thanks a lot

The unicode doesn't work on Opera on Mac OS X. The window title is ok but in address bar you get %E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E8%AA%9E instead of 日本語.
On Firefox and Safari works fine.

Left by matthewbmedia at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Sorry, I also missed the import on line 11 of the AS2 version of swfaddress - should be:

import com.asual.swfaddress.SWFAddressEvent;

Left by Sharif El at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

I have been looking through the different versions of swfaddress, and so far i have found in the following versions have incorrect history logs in the back button dropdown.

2.1 up to 2.4

i have intentionally used your examples in your svn. so by going to each version and running the flex example, you should be able to replicate the behaviour, specifically for
Internet Explorer (All Versions).

you'll notice that if you click the following items in this order:

File, Edit and then View.

then select the back drop down list you will see the last item label ends in "File" where as it should be labelled "Edit". However, if you select this item , it will take you to the Edit screen.

im not sure if anyone else has come across this problem, but its very misleading to the end user.

If you try this in the SWFAddress 2.0 you will see it works correctly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also another problem with all the versions of swfaddress in Internet Explorer, is when you change the URL manually (the paramater part) you will notice the whole SWF reloads. Whereas the correct behaviour is that it should only change the view within the SWF. I have tested this on all other IE Browsers and dont have a problem, but Internet Explorer 6 is still widely used by end users.

I hope this feedback helps, and i look forward to new release with these fixes.

Great work just needs fine tuning.

The 2.3 download package did not update the address bar from AS3 in either Safari 4 or FF 3.5.3 on OS X 10.5 with FP 10.0.32. Advise everyone to go with the SVN version - whatever changes were made there appear to fix it.

I think I found a major problem with SWFAddress 2.3 and IE. I have a site with a few flashvars passed in using swfobject's embedding. Using SWFaddress 2.1, all is fine. As soon as I replace with SWFAddress 2.3 files and recompile, all the incoming flashvars get nulled. Can someone please confirm or provide an explanation? This affects IE6 and IE7 only.

So I've got it working perfect on IE6-7, Safari for PC, Safari for MAC, FF3 for PC. The only one that I have trouble with is FF3 for MAC. Clear the cache, first time through all the pages show perfect, it's when I begin using the Back button on the browser that it loads the page but it doesn't display the swf that was loaded. strange.

Left by Og2t at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

I've just spent an hour trying to work out why SWFAddress is not picking browser events. It turned out that it relies on SWFObject, UFO or AC_FL_RunContent but it's not supporting jQuery, which I was using it to embed my SWF (with jQueryFlash).

Could you add support for jQuery as well please, hopefully it's not a big deal once you wrote jQuery Address.

Thanks a million!

Left by Bull at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Folks,
I'm trying to get a site working for Safari 4 Beta 2. I've just tried to migrate to SA 2.3 and can't seem to get an initial variable passed from the html file to the base flash file. In the old version of SA I was using, it worked like so:

var so = new SWFObject('c.swf?path=website.swf', 'website', '100%', '100%', '8', '#CCCCCC');
so.useExpressInstall('swfobject/expressinstall.swf');
so.addParam('initPage', 'welcome');
so.write('content');

This code passed a variable called initPage with a value of 'welcome' to the flash file, which I then used to load in my first external swf (welcome.swf).

Starting to lose my cool on this. Can somebody please let me know the equivalent to the above code for SA 2.3

I'm publishing Flash V9 AS2

Thanks a whole lot in advance

Left by Chris at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Strange, Completely Blank on FF 3.0.10 on a MAC, but when i test on IE 6 - 7 works perfect. I was using SWFAddress 2.2 before, that worked perfect, jump to 2.3 then it went blank.
Thanks,
Chris

Left by Maurizio at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

as you probably know, Safari 4 beta 2 is out since a few days. A new bug has surfaced. When I change page I cannot see anymore the URL change in the address bar. But if I switch to another tab, when I go back to my site a see the correct address again. Then again, will not update navigating.
To cut a long story short, to see the correct url I have to change tab and then go back. If I don't have tab open, I cannot see the correct URL.
I can imagine that this can be a Safari bug, but I think you should have a look at this issue.

Emil Halase, miashu, tiberiu you should register "X-UA-Compatible" - "IE=7" in HEAD section.
It will give the chance IE8 to work as IE7 and then all will work perfectly!

example:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>my page</title>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />

Left by Rostislav at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

@CJ
Yes, there is such a bug and it wasn't detected because all the AS2 samples target FP8. The AS3 already contains a workaround and I just committed it for AS1/AS2. You can get the latest AS files from the SVN or wait for a maintenance release.

Left by odd at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

@Rostislav

Thanks for the info, it's working with the version from SVN... btw, there is a decode functionality in AS1/2, and it's really called unescape, i've used it as a temporary workaround, and unlike escape (which seems to even convert slashes) it worked fine ;)

Why is it that SWFAddress.setValue insists on returning if you provide the same id as is already being displayed?

Hi there, and thanks for the great tool that truly changes our way of working!

However, I have a little problem with the swfaddress functionality. Whenever I navigate back to home page (myaddress/#) from another page (myaddress/#otherpage), the browser scroll jumps on top of the page, when I'd actually like to remain at the same scroll position (my flash object is taller than the browser window).

If instead of navigating to home (myaddress/#) I use the browser back button (which would take me to myaddress/, without the hash), the scroll position remains the same, just like I wanted.

Thus, the question is, is there a way to make the swfaddress to set the browser url to myaddress/, without the hash?

Thanks in advance!

In my case, I got this in IE8(final)'s Compatibility mode. With compatibility mode off and SWFAddress 2.3, evertyhing worked as expected, but with compatibility mode on, the flashvars are nulled out unless i go down to 2.2 or 2.1.

Lastly the reason I dont wanna go down to 2.1 or 2.2 is because the deeplinking does not seem to be working online in IE with those older versions. I've built other flash sites on 2.1 so I dont know whats up.

Hi,

I think there is a strange problem with the input text.

http://www.travelenmorocco.com is the address that I have problem with. From index.html-->index.swf-->loads content_en.swf
Under Make a Reservation section there are input texts. Everything works till you use special characters. For example I cannot enter ĞÜŞİÖÇ characters in capitals. When I try it in Flash Player it works fine and when I publish the html from Flash it works again but when I use Swfobject and SwfAddress it doesn't.
I don't know if it is swfobject or swfaddress but it is fine with standard AC_RunActiveContent.js.

I use Flash CS3-AS2-Swfobject2.1-Swfaddress2.4 and Turkish keyboard.

Thanks.

Left by Rostislav at Mon, 19 Apr 4:15 PM

Thanks for all the comments and bug reports. Hopefully most of them will be fixed soon.

@Roel and AJ
It's very likely that these problems are caused by the usage of innerHTML instead of document.body.appendChild(). I switched to innerHTML for IFRAME creation in the latest 2.3 release because it was much more stable when it comes to preserving history in IE. I will look into the issue.

@Timo
I'm afraid that this is not possible in every browser. Currently the behavior is unified.

@iongion
Unfortunately I still haven't found the time to test this behavior. The library isn't doing anything intentionally with FlashVars but it might be a side effect.

@Og2t
You just need to use SWFAddress.addId(flashObjectId) in order to use the library with any Flash embedding script.

I'm not sure if this has been reported yet as I haven't found anything from Googling. I'm having an issue with IE7 where the iframe is causing some images on my page to load twice. I looked at the _load function where the iframe is inserted into the body for IE browsers, and it uses innerHTML to pre-pend the iframe node to the body. I think this is the culprit because when I changed it to use the DOM to insert, the duplicate GET calls stopped.

In the list of changes you mention "Support for hash fragments in the SEO redirection".

To get this work I need the fragment part of a url, e.g. 'part4' fragment in the url 'www.test.com/#/tests/testdoc.htm#part4. Is this possible now? And if, how can I retrieve the fragment through SWFAddress?

@Hipopotam and dada
It looks like I haven't red the comment correctly and the issue you're describing exists here too. I think IE will always show such entries like this and therefore I don't find it as a major problem. Anyway I will try to improve the Opera behavior in the next release.

@Beve
This is the behavior I'm targeting but the value parsing and page scrolling should be implemented manually.

Hello Rostislav.

Great work with the SWFAddress! I have some issues with IE. It's pretty bad in IE7. I'm building an application in Flash CS4/AS3 + SWFAdd 2.2. Whenever I click on a link like asual.com/pages/#getpage the browser address changes to asual.com/pages/#/getpage. I'd have to click the link about 3-4 times to get it to display right. This is very critical in my application as #getpage and #/getpage mean different things entirely.
Also, IE7 caches browser states with '#' and this doesn't favor me cos I need each request to request a new state.

I also discovered that if I clicked a link twice like, asual.com/#/page the whole application will be reloaded. Everything else works perfectly on my Mac Safari 4, Mozilla, Opera etc. But IE is most used.

Please help me as this is the final phase of development.

Regards.

There is a bug n this release preventing me to use the attachEvent Javascript method in IE on anything except document.body. This works fine with version 2.2
